Okay, we get it: if you have Netflix, you will probably spend the weekend binge-watching season 3 of House of Cards. However, when you're done with that, what's next? Why not give your brain a spin by watching something a little less depressing and a lot more educational (although we can't argue that Frank Underwood has taught us a lot about politics). If you're a space nerd (or even if you just have a remote interest in space), these 11 best space documentaries on Netflix streaming in 2015 listed by Insidermonkey experts are right up your alley.

Some docs focus on incredible graphics and stunning visuals. Others focus on explaining why the Universe is the way it is.
